Chapter 58: To the Country

Lin Yong was so angry that he slapped his wife in the face, and said hatefully: "Shameful thing!" ”

The third lady covered her face and stared at him in disbelief, and after a while, she screamed, scratched his face when she got up directly, and scolded: "Lin Yong, you are a king, you asked me to go to the long house, and now I am ashamed, what did you do earlier?" ”

The clansmen who sent the third wife back were embarrassed and immediately ran out, "Third uncle, third aunt, you talk, I'll go out to play first." ”

The two little girls also climbed out of the threshold with their legs on their legs and ran to the backyard, and their grandfather and grandmother fought, which was terrible.

Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles, less than half a day, the third wife of the second room went to the long room to force the farm, and the news spread all over Linjiazhuang, and everyone began to denounce the shamelessness of the third wife and the greed and delusion of the second room, and another inside story came.

According to reliable sources, it was Lin Yong's idea for the third wife to go to the long house, and now the couple complains to each other and fights.

I heard that the fight was quite fierce, and it alarmed the clan.

In less than an hour, when the news spread from the head of the village to the end of the village, it became that the husband and wife fought in order to seize the grange of the long house, and they both called the doctor, and now it seems that there is only one breath left......

Lin Qingwan: "......"

Uncle Zhong is accustomed to it, "Miss, it's not good to live in the village, if you have anything in your house, you can spread it anywhere, don't look at our main house is strictly managed, but it can't stop the news from leaking out." It is the people who guard the door and deliver the food are all the people in the house, but the people who send spring water to the house and take swill outside the house are all villagers from Linjiazhuang. And the intersection was on their side, and people saw it coming in and out, and they asked, 'Where did you come back?' ''Where to go, what to do?'' 'Do you answer or don't answer?' ”

"This is a shortcoming, but it is also a strength, our news is known, and similarly, their news is not hidden," Lao Zhongbo said proudly: "We old immortals stay in the main house, in addition to guarding the tomb and home of the masters, we want to collect information for the masters, so as not to let them rebel and don't know." ”

"My brother mentioned it to me, saying that I would come back to you, and ask for your opinion on the affairs of the clan." Lin Qingwan sighed, "Now I know that my father and brother have prepared a lot for their heirs. ”

Old Uncle Zhong couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, "This is the master's foresight." ”

"In the future, the affairs of the clan will have to be loyal to the uncle."

"Don't worry, the old slave will live up to your trust," the old uncle sighed: "It's just that my son is not angry, I don't dare to hand over this burden to him, my grandson is not bad, but he is young, I am afraid that his temperament has not yet been decided, and he may not be able to withstand the temptation in the future." ”

"Uncle Zhong might as well choose a stable and elderly person from another family to cultivate," Lin Qingwan said: "Lin Shun is young and high-spirited, it's not good to bind him in this old mansion, there is a shortage of people around me, it's better to let him come to me on an errand and polish it for a few years." ”

Uncle Zhong's eyes lit up slightly, rubbed his hands and said, "How is this good, will it cause trouble for the eldest lady?" ”

Lin Qingwan smiled and said: "What trouble can he cause me, I will even take his father away." ”

Old Uncle Zhong glared, "Lin Quan is also leaving?" ”

Lin Qingwan nodded, "I see that he is very clever, it is a waste to stay in the old mansion, and it is still useful for me to take him out." ”

Uncle Lao Zhong hesitated, "Miss, Lin Quan is also old, it is better to let him stay at home and farm......

Lin Qingwan couldn't help laughing, "Uncle Zhong, you are still healthy, does he dare to say that he is old?" I know what you're worried about, it's just that he's afraid he's going to get into trouble out there. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on him, and if he really gets into trouble, I'll send him back and let you clean him up. And I won't go far, Zuo is just inside and outside the city of Suzhou, if you want to see him, go to him, and supervise him for me. ”

Uncle Zhong's eyes were slightly sour, he stood up and knelt in front of Lin Qingwan and said, "Miss, the old slave can't repay ......"

"What are you doing," Lin Qingwan hurriedly helped the person up, "This is not only what I meant, my brother explained before leaving, saying that you have been for our Lin family all your life, and we should also think about it for you." ”

"The slave is the slave of the Lin family, and the Lin family should be shared, where is it worth the uncle's concern?"

"If there is a crime, then you should be rewarded, and if you are meritorious, you should naturally be rewarded." Lin Qingwan is serious, their aunt and nephew are delicate and frail, and their relatives not only can't rely on them, but they have to be on guard everywhere. Those who can be used are these faithful servants.

And in the mansion, there are only four people who can make her absolutely trust, Uncle Zhong, Steward Lin and Mama Lin, and Steward Zhong.

And Lao Zhongbo is in the first place, even if it is to let him follow her with peace of mind, she has to arrange it for Lin Quan and Lin Shun.

Lin Shun didn't say it, Lin Quan was a sieve, she didn't want the old uncle to have a difficult choice between his master and his son one day.

So it's better to put an end to that possibility as soon as possible.

Lin Qingwan doesn't have much around her, it's just that she has a lot of positions, and now she is so short of people that she wants to go directly to the street to catch strong men, so Lin Quan and Lin Shun began to get busy after they came to her, and they couldn't stop after spinning like a spinning top.

But both father and son were very happy, they felt full of strength, the outside was different from the old house, the outside world was colorful, and even the air was much freer.

Returning to the Lin Mansion in the west of the city with Lin Qingwan, Lin Quan changed his previous laziness and became diligent, and went to the flower hall on time every day to listen to instructions.

Lin Qingwan was not soft on him, and asked him to take two subordinates to various city gates to recruit coolies, and then send them to the western suburbs.

"You have to figure out the origin of the people, there are many people working this time, from different places, if you invite people who will cause trouble, I will settle accounts with you."

Lin Quan patted his chest and said, "Auntie, don't worry, I will definitely take care of it." ”

Lin Qingwan waved her hand, "Then let's go quickly, I recruited someone and sent it directly to the western suburbs, and the chief steward Zhong is over there." ”

Lin Quan retreated and glanced at his son as he went out.

Lin Shun is now studying with Steward Lin, and as soon as his father leaves, Lin Shun immediately stepped forward to report: "Auntie, the courtyard has been cleaned up, and the furniture and other furniture have been placed, you and the eldest lady can live as long as they go over." ”

Lin Qingwan bowed, "Then let's move over tomorrow." ”

"In such a hurry?" Steward Lin hesitated: "Who will stay in the house to take care of?" ”

Lin Qingwan said with a smile: "Just leave a few doormen and gardeners, out of the things that you are used to every day, you don't have to move anything else, we come back to live every once in a while, and the western suburbs are not far from here." ”

Steward Lin understood, "Then the slave will do it." If anyone else in the clan comes to you......"

"Let the disciples say that we are going to the western suburbs, let them go to the western suburbs to find us, without the master's orders, they don't dare to let people into the door casually."

The corners of Steward Lin's mouth twitched, and he responded with a smile.

Although the second room door eventually became a joke, it also opened up an idea for many people in the clan, of course, they would not come to the door to ask for a grange like the second room, but hoped to rent land.

She will not rent the more than 300 acres of land in Linjiazhuang, but the jue field in the western suburbs can be rented to the clansmen, and she is also willing to reduce the rent by 10% to 10% to 10% to rent to the clansmen as appropriate.

But they were reluctant to leave Linjiazhuang, so what they saw in their eyes was the little village in Linjiazhuang.

Lin Qingwan didn't get tired of it, so she returned to the city on the seventh day of the first month, but she didn't expect them to chase them to the city.

Because of the beginning of spring, the field is going to start to work, and she also has to go to the western suburbs to have a look, just hiding in the countryside.

And Yubin may be a little unwell in the past few days because of the change of seasons, and she is not even in a good mood, Lin Qingwan just took her to relax.

Since returning to Suzhou, Lin Qingwan has not seen Juetian on the spot, but she knows a wide range of land from the map, and she and Yubin are big landlords.

But the feeling was not deep, and when she really stood in the ground and looked westward to her lord's land, she knew how big a landlord she was.

Lin Qingwan couldn't help but admire, "If such a large piece of land is planted with crops, what a magnificent scene it would be." ”

Steward Lin said with a smile: "There are a few such Zhuangzi in our Lin family, and the geology is much better than this." ”

When Steward Lin said this, he forgot that those Zhuangzi had already been sold.

Lin Qingwan seemed to know his thoughts, and said with a smile: "In the future, this land will be better than before." ”

"Yes, Steward Lin, I heard that the more the land is planted, the better," Lin Yubin comforted, "We are more diligent, and the soil strength of this land will definitely be better than the previous good land Zhuangzi in the future." ”

Steward Lin couldn't help laughing, "Miss, this land is planted as much as possible, but you have to give it time to recuperate. ”

Lin Yubin looked at her sister-in-law and whispered, "It doesn't seem to be written in the agricultural book." ”

Because Lin Qingwan often said that they would have to make a living from farming in the future, Lin Yubin recently found a lot of agricultural books to read.

Lin Qingwan smiled and touched her head, "The farmer's writing is not detailed enough, if you want to plant the land, in addition to reading the farmer's book, you also have to ask more people who know how to farm, and you must also think about it." ”

After all, this is not modern, there is no chemical fertilizer and other things, the land is basically raised by farm fertilizer, but in this era, there are not only fewer cattle, fewer pigs, even fewer chickens and ducks, and limited manure.

It was also when the chief steward Zhong reported to her recently that she learned that although the climate in Suzhou is good and can be planted twice a year, most people still only plant one season, and only fertile fields with good fertility will be planted twice a year.

In this way, the fertile land should also be vacated for fertilization in the second year, otherwise the fertility will not be able to keep up with the cultivation of two seasons a year, and the fertile land will also be planted into inferior fields.

And Lin Qingwan and Lin Yubin's fields, except for a small number of official fields that have been cultivated are good fields, the rest of the fertility is in the middle and upper middle, so she didn't plan to plant two crops.

With such a large piece of land, fertilizer is also a big problem, and it is estimated that the price of manure water in Suzhou will rise.
